   If you like. As the Publius Enigma is an extension of aenigma itself.   
      
   I find it amazing after all this time that Phil's contribution is the only   
   thing (regarding the PE as "solvable puzzle hidden by someone") you have taken   
   from all these years. I'm... speechless. Sometimes though I think you're   
   playing everyone. Then the    
   truth sinks in.   
      
   That's okay though. It's just the way it is. Some things will never change,   
   until they do.
